Synopsis: Somei Renji is Somei Yoshino’s grandfather and leader of the “Somei Group”, the Kansai region’s biggest yakuza group. When he arranges for her to be married to Miyama Kirishima, Yoshino has to move to “Miyama Clan” estate, the Kanto region’s biggest yakuza group. Kirishima warmly welcomes Yoshino and is such a pleasant, personable, and nice young man that nobody would suspect that he comes from a yakuza family. This puts Yoshino at ease even though she was initially feeling insecure in this unfamiliar place.
But then, a certain event leads to Yoshino witnessing the real Kirishima.
Toshifumi Kawase directs the anime adaptation of Yakuza Fiancé at Studio DEEN. Rika Takasugi is responsible for the series composition and scripts, with Itsuko Takeda handling the character designs, and Masato Suzuki composing the music.
Kodansha publishes the original Yakuza Fiancé: Raise wa Tanin ga Ii manga by Asuka Konishi in their Monthly Afternoon seinen manga magazine with eight volumes released in Japan to date. Seven Seas Entertainment also publishes the English-language version.
